Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the meringue is firm to the touch and a pale cream color. If the meringue starts to brown too quickly, reduce the oven temperature to 225°F (105°C). (75 minutes)

Cut into wedges and serve immediately. The pavlova is best enjoyed soon after assembly.
For best results, use a very clean bowl and beaters for the meringue. Any trace of grease will prevent the egg whites from whipping properly.
Room temperature egg whites will whip to a greater volume than cold egg whites.
Do not open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the meringue to crack.
If you don't have orange liqueur, you can substitute with a teaspoon of orange zest or a splash of orange juice.
The pavlova can be assembled a few hours ahead of time, but the meringue will soften as it sits. Add the strawberries just before serving for the best texture.
